they would attack the main stream media and state gatherings
not the innocent
only governments do these false flag attacks
governments do the rich mens dirty work
wake up people you are being lied to - again and again forever ...

Why wouldn't they attack the innocent? Thats what Terrorists do. Al Qaeda done in on 9/11 2001. The IRA done it on 15/6 1996.

In fact, as an American, you are most at risk (from a terrorist attack) if you work for an organisation that exploits animals. The United States is the only nation to declare the ALF a terrorist organisation.
Attacks are almost daily.

This will all be blown way out of proportion and will be across the media for days, with many linking it to al-Qaeda.

So what's the betting the American people will lose more of their rights just because some guy blew his trousers off with a firecracker?
A bit pathetic. This will all be blown way out of proportion and will be across the media for days, with many linking it to al-Qaeda.
Oh well....carry on.

Those who would suggest that the war against terrorism is a waste need only to pay attention to these continued efforts to kill and maim innocents in the name of Islam.
The man was apparently already on the government's no-fly list of suspected terrorists, according to a senior intelligence official.
The war on terror is an absolute waste. In fact, if not for our presence in the middle east, there is a solid chance this incident would have never occurred.
Instead of senselessly occupying foreign lands, how about we bring our troops home, secure our own borders, and, *gasp* perhaps actually enforce our own no-fly lists for a change?
You are absolutely correct, to curb terrorism we must remain eternally vigilant. Too bad we are so focused on the middle east that we don't even notice when terrorists actually attempt to enter our country.

Chances are, he wasn't directly linked or even met an al-Qaeda operative. Random fundamentalist, probably unstable, decided to create havoc. Judging from the reports, it was not even a sophisticated device.

The guy they caught was supposedley an engineering student studying in London.
The TV news showed people milling round his flat in London-A £3 million flat they said it was...expensive digs for a "stood",IMO.
The news also interviewed passengers,some of whom said the guy had serious leg burns-Another "shoe bomber" perhaps?
At least they stopped the (thankfully incompetent)nutbag.
Hope he was the only one planning this kind of thing.

There is no such thing as random fundamentalist. Islam and muslims are one unit. Hard for Westerners to understand.

SO JJay will we see more Terrorist attacks in 2010 in the west than any year before? Is that the plan. When do you expect the next big Attack, is it soon?
Why is it that when there is an attack that it is allways blamed on the government i.e inside job, flaseflag? It's never the terrorist and his religion? I see that alot on here.

I don't think so-Otherwise all Muslims would be blowing things up and beheading people all over the western world on a daily basis.
They are not doing so,and the majority of muslims think islamic fundamentalism is an affront to their faith.

Like I've said many times, most terrorists are engineers and doctors.
Now would be the time to learn the facts about Islamic terrorism instead of thinking this is some kind of entertainment stunt.

He's an idiot.
I'm assuming it is in relation to me. Can I highlight to the "terrorist expert" that I've lost a family member to terrorism, so I am more qualified to speak on the subject than him.
Why wasn't these attacks on the news? Hmmm
